        Hi, i ported my number from aitel postpaid bangalore sim to airtel prepaid hyderabad. It has been already 2 days after my old sim is deactivated and my new sim is not able to register to network.

        I already contacted customer care they told me to switch on data roaming, restart the phone, select network manually. New sim is not able to find any network and i am not able to contact even customer care from the same number as there is no network.

        I am really facing a lot of problem because of this, please fix this issue.

        Regards,
        Nilesh

                Dear officer,

                Till now also no response has been given about my problem stated.

                There is no signal of airtel till now also at my address:
                17/3 ram nagar, near shiv kala mandir, krishna nagar delhi 110051

                Airtel officer told me to wait till end of august. But nothing has been improved till now.
                I have made complaint on 10th july with complaint number 77611627. And now 60 days are over with no conclusion.

                Please tell me a concrete answer and dont test my patience. Airtel company is not doing anything. What great response from such a reputed company.

                Please cut my all connections and refund my 5000 rs for all 4 postpaid connections at the earliest.
                Airtel signal quality is pathetic and they are giving 4g speed at challenge, with no responsibility.
                From last 2 months i have writeen 30 mails to airtel appellete officer, and everytime a system generated response mail is reverted back, with no clarification fro my problem at all.

                Please contact me at [protected]

                  Dear sir,
                  It's been a year since launch of jio, am facing the problem.

                  Problem-
                  I am not getting calls from people having jio.
                  Whenever they try calling, the call gets droped instantly.
                  This is happening on my airtel no.-[protected] & because of this i have missed hundreds of calls.

                  (This happening with jio only else from others i am not facing any problem and no problem in outgoing also. Only problem with incoming calls from jio)

                  I contacted many times jio&airtel personnel, customer cares, but both are telling that it from other side the problem is.. And are reluctant to help me resolve the issue.
                  I agree if jio doesn't help because i am a long time airtel customer but they are simply rejecting & reluctant to help..

                  ...
                  Thank you
                  R. Jain

                        Yesterday i saw my airtel app and it was showing i get 10gb in 100rs (Surprise offer). I then called customer care, dey said that if it is showing in ur airtel app, den der wud b d offer for u. I thn subscribed it. However i received a one message stating -

                        "congratulations! Airtel data offer with 1.5 gb 4g/3g [protected]@rs100 has been activated on your number [protected] with effect from 05-sep-2017. To check your data usage, sms datause to 121"

                        I really don't know what z going on.. Is it some kind of trap for earning money of airtel. As this shouldn't happen, or i think the developers of my airtel app r under training. Now i m requesting airtel to waive off 100rs or provide me the pending gb which was promised in my airtel app.

                        Attached screenshot is not the one which i have taken, as dat offer is not showing for me now. However datz d one, which was experienced by some one else!!!

                          My name is imran i work for a mnc as a project manager.

                          I recently switched to airtel broadband from tata docomo. I was promised a plan of 1099 rupees which will have 100 gb download limit at the speed of 40mbps. This plan you are also advertising on your website please see the attached screenshot or this link "https://www.airtel.in/broadband/pune". I paid for this plan and i have also signed a contract for this plan.

                          Last saturday my internet was activated when i check the account details it says that i have 50 gb per month plan with a speed of 16mbps. Well that is not what i was promised and also there is no such plan mentioned on your website. I tried calling your customer care number they are always promising me that it will be changed but it has been almost 4 days and it is still the same old plan.

                          I think i have made a big mistake by switching to airtel, how can you guys be so unprofessional. Your website has got plans which your customer care is not at all aware of.

                          If you are not able to provide me with the plan what was promised then i would like to terminate my contract and i would like my money back please.

                          Account no: [protected]

                          Please see to it that i get the plan that i have signed and paid for.

                            Hello team,

                            My complaint details as below:

                            I have an airtel payment bank (Airtel money) account. Airtel money registered with the mobile number:+91 [protected].
                            Problem details:
                            On 30-aug-2017, one recharge (Amount rs. 100/-) was wrongly recharged for the mobile number:[protected] due to airtel money app hung up.
                            My dad's mobile number was:+91 [protected] when i put this number for recharge at airtel money app (At my infocus m2 mobile), airtel money app was hung up & system wrongly takes wrong number +91 [protected] & recharged on this wrong airtel number as well.

                            Recharge message (From airtel) details as below:
                            Airtel money transaction successful. Your account has been debited by rs.100. Transaction id: [protected] date:30/aug/2017 19:41. Current a/c balance:rs.106.45. Mobile no-[protected]

                            Correct number will be :+91 [protected] & recharge happened for the wrong number+91 [protected],
                            After that i have tried so many times to contact this guy, but till now, this mobile number continuously switched off. After that i called airtel customer care & airtel payment bank support team on the same day. They shared a mail id ([protected]@airtelbank.com) for submitting the details & promised me that will refund within 1 working day. That mail was cc'ed both of airtel nodal officer also (They have logged a case number:# 715750 for this transaction id: [protected].). But they are not taking seriously & avoiding as well. I have called them so many times & mailed also so many times. But not responding. They are harassing me each n every time.

                            So this is ernest request to you kindly look into this matter so that i can get back the reverse as early as possible.

                            Thanks!

                                    Hello,
                                    It's been so much frustrating that i keep getting text that services get activated automatically. I had to send text to deactivate the services every time but still my account is charged.

                                    If this continues i will have to stop the airtel post paid n move to different network.

                                    I appreciate, if some one can look into this.

                                    Thanks
                                    Daniel

                                      Hi,
                                      I received an sms saying amount of 49/- deducted towards hot chilles activation without even my consent or request on my mobile [protected]. The next sms says download hot models etc.. How can such pathetic and cheap service be activated on customer without seeking user confirmation.
                                      This literally seems to be a fraud run by airtel to loot money. I'd like to have this brought to airtels notice and ban such cheap ideas of looting us. Also awaiting for some quivk action on my complaint with refund and cancellation.

                                      Thanks,
                                      Madan

                                        Requested sir

                                        Airtel payment bank is a very bad, i mean worst service ever i used... So, without hearing anything from you i just want to delete my airtel payment bank account.

                                        You dont have a special customer care service for payment bank.. Its a shame...
